I tried this:

on mouseUp
  if exists (url 
"http://www.gurudeva.dynip.com/~htoday/today/Archives/Past/2000/March/March_
21_2000/video.mov") then
    put "true" into msg
  else
    put "false" into msg
  end if
end mouseUp

but the result was false even though the file "video.mov" did in fact exist
on the web site at the indicated directory. What is wrong with my syntax? I
would often need to check to see if a given web document is actually
present, and then give instructions to the user accordingly.

mmm. . .maybe as Scott told Jacqueline earlier, one should really cut his
teeth on HTTP protocol if one wants to play this game. . . can anyone point
me to docs that we can start studying?
